DIY // DINING ROOM

When we moved into our house almost 3 years ago this is what the dining room looked like:

This was a couple of years ago, and we have since added a wine rack shelf and some accessories.
We are still wanting to add molding frames to the white lower part, but that will come after we get
our other house projects done.
I am so happy to have a fresh, updated dining room (even though we rarely use it).
